Kansas City Mayor Q Shames Store Owners Afraid Of Theft

A recent quote in opposition to the local tiny bottle booze ban sparked the ire of Mayor Q today.

Here's the quote . . .  

Shawn Coudry, who owns more than 25 liquor and convenience stores in and around Kansas City, said he was "absolutely" in support of the lawsuit to block the ordinance.

He said that the measure is going to destroy businesses, and that people who would've bought single-serve liquor will now steal larger bottles of liquor.

"They can't afford a $10 bottle now," he said. "They're going to steal them. Or they're going to buy the big ones and get drunk. So, what it is solving?" 

TO WHICH MAYOR Q RETORTS . . .

"When you see your customers as drunk, broke, thieves, it seems you give the neighborhood around them the same disrespect."
